Why Comvita for your Manuka honey?

Why UMF™ for your Manuka honey?

Methylglyoxal (MGO) is the source of Manuka honey’s special antibacterial properties and an important potency measure. The higher the MGO number, the stronger the concentration of MGO. The UMF™ guarantee means that you can be sure that Manuka honey bearing the UMF™ mark contains the special bioactive compounds.

Leptosperin is a compound found only in New Zealand Manuka flower nectar and can only be created by nature. Measuring this unique component ensures the authenticity of Manuka honey. Laboratory research also shows Leptosperin content has anti-inflammatory properties that grow as the UMF™ scale increases.

Dihydroxyacetone (DHA) is slowly converted to MGO in healthy living honey. The higher the DHA content, the longer the life of the MGO content in your Manuka honey – which is why Manuka honey must have more than 70 mg/kg DHA to be UMF™ certified.

We test for Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), since this compound assures honey has not been overheated or stored too long, and is in the best condition to maintain the unique blend of living properties in Manuka honey as promised.
